This collaborative engineering field course is a joint initiative of
Harvard's SEAS, the Escola Politécnica of the Universidade de São Paulo
(USP), and the David Rockefeller Center for Latin American Studies' (DRCLAS)
Brazil Studies Program. Professor Scot Martin, Gordon McKay Professor of
Environmental Chemistry, will be leading the course with other Harvard
faculty (including "Dean Venky" and Prof. John Briscoe) with the support of
the DRCLAS Brazil Office in São Paulo. The program will include Brazilian
students and faculty from throughout the country and will take place in
Brazil from January 7th to January 21st, 2010.
The following Harvard students are encouraged to apply: students currently
enrolled in undergraduate or graduate programs at SEAS, doctoral students in
related disciplines in GSAS, and current graduate students from other
Schools across the University (HKS, HBS, HLS, etc) who hold undergraduate
degrees in engineering. There is no foreign language requirement for this
course, which is not credit-bearing. Preference will be given to students
who have an interest in pursuing related research and/or coursework
subsequent to the programs conclusion. For undergraduates, preference will
be given to students in their final two years of study and to those pursuing
or planning to pursue senior thesis work that is related to the courses
content.
